Garmin Dash Mount Bracket, For GPSMAP 76 Series, Swivel/Tilt, Locking

Overview

The Garmin 010-10305-00 is an adjustable dash mounting bracket for compatible Garmin handheld GPS units, with a swivel and tilt head so you can set the screen angle where you can actually read it. A locking mechanism holds the handheld in place, which helps when you are dealing with vibration at the helm or when a vehicle dash is bouncing around. It also accepts an optional external power adapter for quick connection to a DC power supply.

This mount is commonly used with handhelds in the GPSMAP 72/72H family, the GPSMAP 76 family (76, 76C, 76CS, 76CSx, 76Cx, 76S), and GPSMAP 96/96C. On a boat, it is a clean way to keep a handheld secured on a console or nav station while still being easy to remove when you want to carry it to the cockpit, dinghy, or dock.

Key features

• Dash-mount style bracket with swivel and tilt adjustment for better screen viewing angles
• Locking mechanism helps keep the handheld seated during vibration and movement
• Accepts an optional external power adapter for a quick DC power connection
• Built around Garmin handheld GPS units in the GPSMAP 72/72H, GPSMAP 76 family, and GPSMAP 96/96C groups
• Works well as a fixed home for a handheld at the helm, with the flexibility to unclip and take the unit with you

Compatibility and fit

Confirm your handheld model is in the supported GPSMAP 72/72H, GPSMAP 76 family, or GPSMAP 96/96C lineup before ordering. These devices share the same general cradle style used by this bracket, but handhelds outside those families use different housings and will not seat correctly.

If your GPS is in a protective case or has a bulky lanyard setup, check that the edges and latch area can still fully engage with the bracket. A secure click-in fit matters more on a boat, where repeated shock loads can work a loosely seated handheld out of a mount over time.

Installation and setup

Mount it where you can see the screen without blocking other helm controls, and where the unit will not get kicked or snagged by lines. Leave enough clearance for the bracket to tilt without hitting a bulkhead, windshield frame, or instrument pod.

For marine installs, pick a location that stays relatively protected from constant spray and direct washdowns. If you plan to run external power, route the cable so it cannot chafe on sharp fiberglass edges and add strain relief near the mount so the connector is not carrying the load.

Power and onboard use

When your handheld supports external power, the optional power adapter connection lets you run from the boat’s DC system instead of relying on internal batteries during long runs. That is helpful for a handheld that lives at the helm as a backup navigator or position display while the main system is off.

Use on board

This bracket is a good match for boaters who still rely on a compatible Garmin handheld as a grab-and-go navigator, a tender GPS, or a backup at the helm. It keeps the handheld in a consistent spot for quick glances, then comes off easily when you need the unit in your hand for docking, anchoring, or scouting a shoreline.

Maintenance and care

Wipe the bracket down occasionally, especially after salt exposure, and keep the swivel points free of grit so the adjustment stays smooth. If you notice the handheld is not locking positively anymore, inspect the latch area for sand or salt buildup and clean it before the next trip.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
